The Little Darling Wife Who is a Divine Doctor Saved the Entire Family of the Duke's Mansion
Chapter 368: You’re just in time to be back.
Chapter 368
Seventh Elder Brother knew that Ninth Younger Sister-in-Law could resolve Gu poison and should have more understanding of Gu worms. Handling this kind of thing to her was the most reassuring approach.
He Zhiran took over the porcelain bottle and gently shook it next to her ear a few times.
If there really were Gu worms inside, and they were raised by that commander, apart from puppet Gu, it would be impossible for the Gu worms to continue living once their master died.
She did this to further confirm whether the Gu worms were dead. If the Gu worms were dead, she could hear slight collisions inside the bottle by shaking it. On the other hand, if the Gu worms were still alive, they would avoid the collisions themselves.
The result of the experiment proved that what she heard was the sound of Gu worms colliding with the bottle walls, so she could determine that the Gu worms were already dead.
He Zhiran gently opened the bottle stopper and poured the Gu worms from inside into her palm.
The Gu worms were yellowish brown in color. Based on their appearance, it could be determined that these were Gu worms that had not been fully domesticated yet, because immature Gu worms meant that He Zhiran could not determine what kind they were for the time being.
Since the Gu worms were not adult, they could not breed offspring to harm people yet. That is to say, that commander was a novice at raising Gu.
However, this further confirmed his identity as a Southerner.
"Seventh Elder Brother, Eighth Elder Brother, we really have to be more vigilant from now on to prevent more ill-intentioned people from infiltrating Xi Ling Village."
Her thinking was almost identical to that of her two elder brothers. Whether they were Southerners or Barbarians, what they feared were the Mo Family.
Moreover, the fact that the Mo Family had been exiled here was no longer a secret. If someone wanted to find out about them, they would naturally think of ways to mix in here.
But why would the Southerners go through so much trouble?
If they wanted to inquire about the Mo Family, they could simply send people disguised as Da Shun people to come over.
This point inevitably caused He Zhiran to think deeply.
Seeing that her two elder brothers did not refute her opinion, she continued:
"I suspect that the Southerners wanted to inquire about the Mo Family on one hand, but more importantly, they wanted to eradicate the Mo Family with the Barbarians' power."
Seventh Elder Brother listened and kept nodding.
"Ninth Younger Sister-in-Law's analysis is right. It seems we really have to make preparations as soon as possible."
Just as He Zhiran was about to say something more, they suddenly heard hurried footsteps coming from the direction of the village.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound.
They saw Tao Ran leading a group of men, women, young and old running towards them.
Tao Ran was an old subordinate of the Mo Family. He was made into a medicine slave by Master Simeng's means to work for him. Fortunately, He Zhiran helped him detoxify.
After recovering for a period of time, he left.
This time, the old subordinates of the Mo Family who were also made into medicine slaves by Master Simeng returned to Xi Ling Village with him. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝓮𝓌𝑒𝒷𝘯ℴ𝑣𝓮𝓁.𝒸ℴ𝘮
From the whole group, it was clear that they had brought their families to take refuge this time.
Seeing them, Seventh Elder Brother and Eighth Elder Brother were obviously very happy. The two welcomed them one after the other.
"Tao Ran, it's good that all of you are back." Eighth Elder Brother was straightforward. He was just thinking that it would be great if Tao Ran and the others had come back earlier. With them here, there would be an extra line of defense against external enemies.
It had to be known that these people were truly battle-hardened warriors. It would not be an exaggeration to say that one of them could match a hundred enemies.
As a result, he really got what he wished for. As he was thinking about Tao Ran and the others in his mind, they came.
Tao Ran discovered something was wrong as soon as he entered the village. He brought people all the way here.
"Seventh Master, Eighth Master, what on earth happened?"
The scene before Tao Ran and the others was too familiar. Wasn't this exactly what a battlefield looked like after fierce fighting?
While speaking, Tao Ran did not forget to carefully examine Mo Yuance and Mo Chuhan to see that they were unharmed before he felt much more relieved.
Encountering something like this, Mo Chuhan could not ask Tao Ran too many questions either. He told everyone what happened this morning and their analysis.
After listening, Tao Ran was filled with righteous indignation. "These people are really... Eighth Master, please rest assured. We have brought our families to settle here long-term this time. Our skills are nothing special, but we are still capable of killing external enemies."
Seeing this, the other old subordinates also came forward one by one to express their willingness to guard this place.
Their second lives were given by the Mo Family. Before leaving here, they had already decided to devote their lives to the Mo Family.
Mo Chuhan patted several people's shoulders excitedly.
"Good. With you all here, I believe our home will definitely be very safe."
Since dealing with those Barbarians was handed over to Meng Huaining, the Mo brothers stopped bothering about it and urged Tao Ran and the others to go back and rest.
Fortunately, He Zhiran had moved quickly to buy the Cui family's manor and farmland.
Under the Mo brothers' arrangement, Tao Ran's group were all allocated courtyards to settle their families.
Although He Zhiran was not unfamiliar with arrangements for battles, she was clearer that her two elder brothers were veterans. They were undoubtedly proficient in guarding and making arrangements, possibly even more brilliant than her.
Therefore, regarding the arrangements for Tao Ran and the others, she did not plan to participate too much, leaving everything to her two elder brothers.
After busy for so long, it was really too tiring for her as a pregnant woman.
Seeing that she had done what she should, she dragged her weary body to go back and rest.
Seeing her slightly stumbling steps, Old Lady Mo took the initiative to support her.
The old lady knew that her ninth daughter-in-law had worked hard with great achievements today. If she had really gone to the city as she arranged, her two sons would have had a hard time dealing with so many Barbarians.
"Mother thanks you on behalf of everyone."
Old Lady Mo sincerely thanked her daughter-in-law. At the same time, she felt great distress for He Zhiran. With such a big belly and pregnant with twins, she did not care for herself at all for everyone's sake.
He Zhiran smiled lightly and patted the old lady's hand.
"Mother, I know my limits. Don't worry."
Seeing this, Old Lady Mo reproached, "You're still saying you know your limits. You're even stumbling when walking."
"Hehe... Mother, I'm just a little tired. I'll be fine after resting for a while." He Zhiran pretended to say lightly.
Being supported by her mother-in-law personally back home, He Zhiran immediately went into the space.
At this moment, she was already starving and just wanted to replenish her strength as soon as possible.
The space had everything she could possibly want. At worst, she could still buy things from Taobao Treasures.
Not only that, after Little Collector heard she was pregnant, he specially helped her buy takeaway packages from modern high-end restaurants at low prices several times for her to enjoy the long-awaited delicious food.
She leisurely enjoyed the delicious food in the space while Meng Huaining had a headache outside.
Facing so many Barbarian commoners, it was easy to deal with the dead ones. Who told them to come and plunder Da Shun?
That was the price to pay for doing bad things. Dying was also reasonable.
However, the remaining living ones were problematic no matter if they were beaten or punished.
If they were beaten and injured, they would not be able to leave this place. If they were punished, these people were also penniless.
But letting them leave just like this was also not appropriate.
Just when he was in dire straits, Hu Cong came before him.
